Fungi at Bola Creek – 10 April 2023

It was good to catch up with Digi Dave again for a trip to Bola Creek in Royal National Park to check out the fungi. I was hopeful that conditions would be good as there had been recent rain. But conditions turned out to be a bit disappointing. It seems that since the rain, the weather has been quite hot and windy. We certainly found the leaf litter quite crunchy to walk on in places. Nevertheless, we did find some interesting fungi out.

In one small spot, we found some small pink waxcaps. They appear to be Hygrocybe roseoflavida.

I had seen them in previous seasons in this same spot.

Nearby was another waxcap – Gliophorus chromolimoneus, but now called Gloioxanthomyces chromolimoneus.
